More snow...

SNNNOOOOOOOOWWWW!

[As per the song in White Christmas, hehe!]

I did get more snow, figuratively and literally. It stormed on the weekend and dumped lots of snow al over Canada... in Halifax we got snow followed by a deluge of rain... which I had the wonderful opportunity to stand in... in a vest.. blech... winter is silly. Stuck cars and frozen roads are not so much fun ;p

But Sunday I took Colin to see White Christmas, which as part of the holiday season, was showing on the big screen! Yay! I was so excited I nearly pee'd myself. What a treat to be able to go see it in a theatre... it was really swell. Hehe! :)

The countdown to my Christmas vacation is on, so happy holidays one and all, may your end of year celebrations be filled with peace, joy and love. HUGS!

Let it snow!

I was fortunate enough to be invited to go along with a friend to see White Christmas at Neptune yesterday. Wow, what a great performance, the whole show was just fantastic! I admit that I'm a sucker for theatre and love to watch a good musical more than anything else. The fact that it was White Christmas made it even better. I've watched the movie every year that I've had the opportunity for the past ten years or so. I'm such a big fan of Bing Crosby anyway, as well as Danny Kaye; basically, I just love the movie. To the point, I had a fantastic evening and was delighted by the performance. Their song and dance was just as good as in the movie, and had it's own creative style... making it memorable for my first time at Neptune. Being the silly boi that I am, I was all choked up a few times, especially after one tap number that was just downright fabulous. What a treat :) As we left the theatre and walked back to the car, it snowed like crazy... adding a little extra special memory to the night. It was clear skies when we went into the theatre, the snow was a surprise. While I'm not one to get into the holiday spirit too early, I certainly have it in me this year.

Stupid alarm clock

It's been ten years. I find it hard to fathom that a decade has passed. Am I any better off or any happier? Who knows... I am a bit different though, I guess that's something...

sweet like candy

Today is my day off.

I took a vacation day and extended my weekend by 1 day. I had a three day weekend.

Actually, [says Audrey] I had an excellent three day weekend. Colin was offered a new job, so Saturday we went to Jane's on the Common to celebrate. The food was fantastic and I stuffed myself. I tend to be doing that a lot lately, but December is always a 'family first, then food' type of month. I know my priorities! Yesterday was Colin's 'decorate-a-thon' at home, so some friends came over and we watched Christmas movies while he decorated the apartment and broke things. We all had dinner and then watched some TV shows before calling it a night. Which leads me into today... wonderful day off that it has been. It's snowed incessantly since this morning and it appears we're facing a stormy night. I'm content to sit back and relax and let winter have its way :)

It's a 15 minute walk to work, so if the roads are plowed, I'll face the fury of the storm tomorrow, but if nothing is dug out by 8:30... I'm rolling over and going back to sleep. :)
